@MikeEdenfield obviously not or make it part of opening credit silent scene fore 15-20 sec

According to TV Guide, Rachel Taylor's character in Jessica Jones is her adopted sister, which will be a bit odd if Jessica Jones was adopted by Trish Walker's family...

> On the series, Jessica never even suited up as an official superhero (though the Jewel costume does make an appearance). And even though Jessica is part of the MCU, Marvel doesn't lend any of its other established superheroes to the TV show. So sadly, there won't be any Avengers or S.H.I.E.L.D. popping up this season.

@MikeEdenfield Hmmm. I'd heard that Matt Murdoch was going to show up...

@MikeEdenfield Also - "though the Jewel costume does make an appearance". This is awesome.

oh. sorry. that was a bit out of context.

it mentioned him earlier, that's why it says other

this was in the context of her comics origin story: fought the Avengers, friends with Carol Danvers, has psychic blocks from Jean Grey, etc.

@MikeEdenfield Ah OK, gotcha. So is it confirmed that he makes an appearance? That's awesome if so.

well I have no idea where TV Guide is getting their information, because a lot of it are things I'd never heard before.

but it mentions Luke Cage and Matt Murdock as being part of her "story"

@MikeEdenfield Some people (reviewers, press etc) have seen the entire series at this stage. Forbes have it a glowing review.

ah, cool.

it seems like this writer has seen parts, the way he's making claims about it "going in a different direction" and stuff.

@MikeEdenfield Have you got a link sorry?

tvguide.com/news/jessica-jones-everything-you-need-to-know

@MikeEdenfield I don't know how much of this article is talking about the comics and how much is talking about the show. The only mention of Daredevil is later on, and it could be talking about either the show or the comics.

that is true

@MikeEdenfield I might try and rewatch Daredevil in the next week as preperation for Jessica Jones there is like what, 13 hours of content? Two episodes a night and I'm good.

i havent seen anyone actualy affiliated with the production say matt was going to show up. the news was from some blog i had never heard of.

so, of course, everyone ran with it

@phantom42 It makes sense. They need to establish that these things co-exist to casual viewers, and that's the best way to do it.

it does seem entirely reasonable that a PI in Hell's Kitchen might end up running into a lawyer from Hell's Kitchen

oh, it absolutely makes sense. im just pointing out that the source wasn't necessarily an absolute authoritative one

YAY DVK started some drama.

it's been almost a whole day

we were due

WORD

oh crap.

And the site has been nuked from orbit.

here comes everyone.

Wow

THIS IS THE NO DRAMA SF&F CHAT ROOM PLZ KTHX

SHOG GOT FLAGGED

SHOG!

@WadCheber He DID tell everyone to STFU. That's rude.

is that even legal?

Everyone overboard!

@DrRDizzle - It got flagged.

There is only one user I actually blame for this kerfuffle.

I daringly validated it and it got system-deleted

@Richard I know that.

@DrRDizzle - Oh hell yeah

I like how it was somehow my fault in his eyes.

Shog is up on his high horse

@Richard Completely unacceptable.

@Richard you put him there.

@WadCheber And nothing of value was lost ;P

@MikeEdenfield - As usual, outside mods have entered and done nothing to help the situation

outside mods entered and made the situation worse.

mostly by arguing with you

We can't. Because you froze the room

if they had just stayed out the situation would have resolved itself.

DVK got flagged, it got invalidated, we all moved on.

@MikeEdenfield - The mod who invalidated the flag is to blame here.

well, I also invalidated the flags.

all 3 of them

@MikeEdenfield I actually flagged the message in question. That actually WAS offensive to any reasonable person, and certainly not suitable.

@DrRDizzle - I flagged it.

yeah but I invalidate flags by reflex now

FFS

And we're frozen again.

I don't find DVK's religious or political views offensive just because I disagree with them.

then again, prolly 40%ish of the people I know would agree with him

it's probably an American thing.

that's a fairly mundane, routine statement of fact I see on posters as I drive to work

@MikeEdenfield Maybe it's just me, but I get offended when someone calls people I love "murderers"

@WadCheber - Yup. This

@WadCheber would you get offended if hypothetically someone you loved murdered someone and got called a murderer?

@MikeEdenfield If someone commits murder, they're a murderer. That is irrelevant to the subject at hand.

my wife had an abortion. half this country genuinely believes she murdered someone.

that is the subject at hand.

@Richard That's why I said FFS.

because what you're really saying is "I get offended when someone calls abortion murder"

Hi @ryan

Hey

@MikeEdenfield That is offensive.

@MikeEdenfield - That certainly seems pretty offensive to me

@MikeEdenfield Indeed. But let's change the subject.

In fact the reason why people say that is because it offends. That's why they say it.

I was at lunch, what exactly blew up?

What answer?

oh yeah, this is the on-topic room.

@Richard but it doesn't offend the millions of people who say it, so.....

@MikeEdenfield So they wouldn't flag it.

except there's nothing SF&Fy to talk about at the moment.

The end.

@MikeEdenfield - That's true, but when they say it, it's intended to offend the people who don't think the way they do.

@Richard This. The purpose of the statement is to offend. That makes it offensive, as both the people saying and hearing it know that it is intended to offend.

shrug

I disagree with the entirety of that sentence.

but w/e

JESSICA JONES NEXT WEEK

Anyway, anyone watch any comic related movies and tv shows this week?

@MikeEdenfield - Woo.

Anyone?

@MikeEdenfield I'm hyped.

I am hyped.

but also bummed

as it dawns on me how different from Alias it will have to be

and that David Tennant is the bad guy

@MikeEdenfield David Tennant is such a graet actor though

troo

Ah, I think I get the gist of it now

I'm trying with the on-topic SF&F here people. work with me.

most amusing part: all 32 people are sitting there watching the countdown

TIL there are ~86,000 seconds in a day

@MikeEdenfield Is anime on-topic? that's mostly what I've been watching lately

@ryan Yes. Why not.

@ryan its unlikely to get the chat room shut down so sure, why not.

Lol,

poor @Slytherincess

one piece didnt come out this week

i was sad

@ryan - Anime is fine. Hentai isn't

Flagged for arbitrariness!

@Richard but what if the tenticales hentai has a good plot

can anyone ping @Slytherincess into this room?

@Richard yea... I don't watch Hentai

@Slytherincess your presence is requested in here

But I have been watching Sword Art Online

@Himarm - Some anime definitely borders on hentai (i'm looking at you, Elfen Lied) but rarely does genuine hentai have much of a plot.

@Richard I'm yet to see an anime that isn't at least somewhat perverted.

@Richard My understanding from jokes was that plot in hentai didn't stand for plot

@DrRDizzle - There are plenty that have zero fan-service.

@Richard Such as...

Hunter x Hunter 2011

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

Very little in Death Note.

@Richard I've seen that. So much jiggling.

Cowboy Bebop. Fay is mostly played for laughs.

@Richard I've been meaning to watch that for a long time/

@ArtOfCode I'm not sure she realized the room was frozen, just want to make sure :)

@MikeEdenfield Presumably she'll turn up in here when she gets that ping, and then you can talk to her about it :)

I've seen Cowboy Bebop.

stopped watching as soon as I realized there were no cowboy's named Bebop.

false adversiting

I keep hearing about Cowboy Bebop, but I haven't watched it, I can't get over the name...

@ryan there are no Cowboys nor anyone Bebop'ing, you'll be ok.

@MikeEdenfield - There's a space cowboy and bebop music.

I think you're confusing it with Firefly

In that universe, bounty hunters are referred to as "cowboys"

the space cowboys in Firefly actually herded cows.

I'm reading the Irregular at Magic High currently cause I thought the anime was great

I hate that so many anime's only have one season

But I do like examining a lot of the Tropes in anime and looking at them from the perspective of the culture and history of Japan, and how it's different from ours.

@ryan Most of the tropes of anime is what puts me off it as an artform so hard.

@DrRDizzle I can get that, some of them put my wife off to. But we've also had a lot of fun discussing them and their origins as well.

@ryan I've been watching Parasyte: the maxim with my girlfriend, and that seems to have managed to avoid the things that make my eyes roll out my head so far.

my favorite anime of all time is probably Avatar: The Last Airbender. Or Hanna Barbera Olympics. Toss-up

@MikeEdenfield - Avatar is not an anime.

@Richard Yes it is.

@Richard that was the joke.

@DrRDizzle Depends on who you ask but most people say it's not.

@DrRDizzle I think the general definition of anime includes the fact that it was made in Japan

Avatar is Western Animation with an anime style

@MikeEdenfield Anime just means animation though.

in Japan it does. In the US where Avatar was made, it means Japanese animation.

@MikeEdenfield - Definitely non-anime. Made in the anime style.

@MikeEdenfield I assume Japanese people would class it as anime.

I assume Japanese people would class it as "stupid American's stealing our gimmick"

escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/features/…

@MikeEdenfield I skimmed, and I think I agree.

So what are peoples absolute favorite animes?

@ryan I haven't seen much, but I really liked a lot of Hunter X Hunter, I'm enjoying JoJo's Bizarre Adventure@ Stardust Crusaders and I loved the first season of Attack on Titan.

@ryan - Evangelion

@MikeEdenfield cowboy bebop was incredibly boring. we got through about half of it and i still couldn't care less about anyone on the show

Gunslinger girl

Cowboy Bebop

Attack on Titan

Nadesico

check it out. Mos Eisley now looks like the Screening Room!

trigun, fullmetal alchemist (both versions), attack on titan,

knights of sidonia has issues of being too easy to confuse characters, but pretty fun

@Richard the original show or the new movies? I haven't seen either I just know that there is a difference between them.

@phantom42 I've thought about checking out knights

@ryan - The new films are weird. The first one was very very similar to the first three episodes and the assumption (among fans) was that they'd basically be a shot-for-shot remake of the original show

Then the second film went completely berserk, introducing new characters and totally wigged out.

@ryan good story, the problem is that they randomly switch back and forth referring to people by first or last name, and lots of characters look alike (even ignoring the 8? identical sisters). also, one is fluxing between genders..

@Richard huh, interesting so you recommend the show over the movies?

@ryan - Watch the show, then watch the movies.

@phantom42 That wouldn't be good for my wife, she really gets the names confused in shows that don't do that.

@Richard the ending of the show? or both?

@ryan - Both, but especially the show. It gets really really weird. Like "written by someone eating LSD tabs like tic-tacs" weird

pastafarian allowed to wear a colander hat for her dmv photo

@phantom42 I'm glad religion is OK to mock now. It reminds me of that comic related movies and tv shows I saw once.

@DrRDizzle ok?

@Richard lol, I'll keep that in mind, I hadn't heard that but I had heard good things about the show

And I like anime's from the 90's

@phantom42 I'm keeping it on topic, don't blow my cover

@DrRDizzle I swear to god if you start drama in here and Shog9 figures out this room exists I will send you portable DVD players pre-loaded with Fant4stic Four set to auto-play every day for the next 6 years.

The good fantastic four right?

Oh wait, nevermind.

@MikeEdenfield ...it was a joke about trying to keep things on topic. Like, erm, Agents of SHIELD does.

@MikeEdenfield I think his intent was to keep it on topic, he just worded it funny

ok then, just be warned.

I've got amazon prime gift cards and I'm not afraid to use them

Mike is an unforgiving Amazon Prime Badass

@DrRDizzle you totally did word it funny.

<-- not RO

i am the only one with the power here

@ryan I do that.

@phantom42 oh lord, we're in your hands?

At least it isn't Wads hands

Right, the news is making me depressed and so are these chats. I'll see you guys when Mos Eisley is rebuilt at some point.

@CandiedMango That would be the other room everyone's in.

if puzzling:se outlasts sff:se I'm gonna be pissed.

I doubt we will be desolved

Unless it just went to something like books.se

we just need separate rooms for flame wars

i think we're going to turn wad's room into it

So we can do that?

@CandiedMango books.se would open up the site to books with Fabio on the cover.

We don't want that. Not at all.

Have chats for possibly offensive topics?

we dont want what? a separate room for arguing?

or comments within those topics

@phantom42 no, questions about books with Fabio on the cover.

i'm being a little facetious when i say for flame wars

but more for controversial topics

like the daily gun control arguments

some of us don't want to re-read the same crap over and over

(That's me)

@phantom42 And I was feeling so good about myself for avoiding those this whole last week.

and we'd rather those conversations not get us all locked out of the main room again

I personally don't mind having those arguments. I mind having some arguments be "ok" and others be "too offensive".

I just want fun loosely based around SCIFI and of course terrible terrible puns

it people want those arguments to be off-limits then it has to be consistent.

Depends on the topic. I'm not sure it should be in Mos though considering it's the main SFF room

but if the rule is that Mos Eisley is only ever for SF&F specific chat, it's gonna die fast.

@CandiedMango that's no different than the main chat rooms for most other SE sites.

lots of on-topic talk quickly diverging into off-topic talk.

I'm fine with that.

other than a couple of the super-technical ones like Physics.

getting ready to watch heroes. i hear this weeks ep is not good

@MikeEdenfield Hence the new room. Once Mos Eisley is open, I might deowner myself in Off Topic is on topic. I can't afford to be responsible for it, and I don't care to be.

It's when it takes up several hundred messages

we're just busier than all of those.

arrow was a mixed bag

@phantom42 I was actually totally meh on Ray coming back.

and SUPER SUPER GRRR about Felicity and Oliver breaking up over him.

like, damnit, we saw this stupid drama last season and no one bought it.

The problem was, we knew that Ray was alive

but they ended up not, i thought

they did.

which made it all the more forced.

I thought they ended up in "we need to talk"

and OH MY GOD DID WE NOT NEED FELICITYS MOM

LANCE AND F MOM <3

NEW HOT COUPLE
